Confusion surrounds the departure of federal independent MP Peter Slipper from Queensland billionaire Clive Palmer’s new political party.
The former Liberal MP applied to join the United Australia Party (UAP), which is now changing its name to Clive’s united part or the C.unt

Strange man, says went into politics ‘coz he loves Australia or similar comment, yet he burns through money with ridiculous ideas like building dinosaurs and sunken ships. Can’t help but think if he cared that much, he may have spent some spare dollars on the country he loves so much.

Gina reckons lazy people should get a kick up the arse. That’s a pretty good idea IMO.

Thing is, he does spend quite a large amount philanthropically and with very little publicity.

The only ones publicised are the political donations, which are large. But universities, medical research, yadda yadda do well out of him as well I understand.

I’m very inclined to vote for either of the two political parties with “Australia” in its name.
Or even better, vote independent. Liberal and Labor are now both totally corrupt.

It’s good to get out, good to talk, meet old friends and maybe some new ones, get drunk, smell the bar stools, put the weights on your best friends wife, spew in the front lawn, piss all over the floor of the toilet. Parties are good.

I think the Republican movement should be expanded to include an overall of federal, state and local governments
reform on an ongoing basis maybe
after the republic vote, tackle the other issues, not all at once
brushing away the west minister party system and replacing it with all independents would be a breath of fresh air
and maybe polifact could become bigger, to really keep them honest
